Best Christmas Movies

Okay, this holiday season, I'm going to split Christmas movies into two categories. The first is straight-up Christmas movies. These are movies in which Christmas is a major theme or intregal to the plot. There are a lot more older movies on this chart than most of my lists, but, let's get real. How often does Hollywood put out a decent holiday movie these days?

1. Miracle on 34th Street (1947)
2. Scrooge (1970)
3. The Bishop's Wife (1947)
4. A Christmas Story (1983)
5. Elf (2003)
6. The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992)
7. Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol (1938)
8. The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
9. Home Alone (1990)
10. Prancer (1989)
